inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. Minister of Environment (LH) Hanif Faisol Nurofiq will supervise the proper management of waste in the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program which has been running since Monday (6/1/2025).

“Tomorrow, on Tuesday (1/7/2025) I will directly lead the monitoring of the MBG program throughout the country. Although technically we have released the circular letter, I think it will be more valid if we see it directly,” says Hanif on Monday (1/6/2025).

Through the direct monitoring, Hanif could do an adjustment and devise a proper mitigation strategy to ensure the success of the MBG program from the side of trash management.

Waste management needs to be done because the potential for waste generation is not only from types of food waste that fall into the organic waste category, but also from inorganic waste such as plastic and paper.

Coordination will also be carried out with the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (Kemendikdasmen) in its implementation and the provincial government including DKI Jakarta because of its location close to the office of Environment Ministry
